Being a teacher isn't always easy. Not only do we usually have 100+ students that we are responsible for every day, but we are also involved in several extracurricular activities that we put our own time into doing. On top of that, we have to plan, have meetings, mark assignments, make photocopies, and deal with numerous other things. And somewhere in all of that, we have lives of our own.
Now, I realize that I'm a teacher, and all of the things I just mentioned are part of the job. I'm not trying to be a whiner here, but basically what I'm getting at here is that sometimes things get quite busy, and I can't necessarily always update this site every single day. In the event where I am not able to update this site for a day or two, students are still responsible for the work they missed in class. While this website is a useful tool for students who cannot be in class for some reason, it does not remove the responsibility away from them to catch up on missed work.
If I have not updated this site, there are several other sources students can go to in order to find out what they've missed. Some examples include coming to me and asking me (I'm usually in the building by 8 A.M. and don't usually leave until 5:00 P.M.), asking a friend who is in your class, e-mailing me or a friend, checking the extra handouts trays in the classroom, etc.
That being said, I will do my absolute best to update and maintain this site as much as possible.
